The Crush Family
Researched and written by Margaret Sypniewski, herbu Odrowaz

GENERATION ONE:

Ichabod Bartholomew (farmer/clothier) was born on February 11, 1772 in Farmington, Connecticut. Ichabod left Farmington, after 1798. and settled in Kirkland, New York until 1835, when he moved to Williamson (near Sodus Bay) New York, then he moved to Westfield Township, Medina County, Ohio. Ichabod married Rhoda Wood on October 18, 1798, in Farmington, Connecticut (now Avon, since 1830). They were married in the Northington Church. Ichabod died on January 19, 1852, in Westfield, Medina County, Ohio, at age 80 or 81. However, the tombstone, in the Crush Cemetery, shows him dying on March 16, 1851, at age 74 years, 17 days. Ichabod was in the War of 1812. Rhoda Wood was born on January 16, 1781, in Connecticut. Rhoda died March 16, 1865, in Westfield, Medina County, Ohio. Rhoda's father is thought to be Eli Wood. Eli was in the 1840 Census of Petitioners of the Revolutionary War. His second wife was named Rhoda. They lived in Smithfield, Madison County, New York. Rhoda was 88 years of age in 1840, thus we can estimate her birthday circa 1752. Rhoda (nee Wood) Bartholomew's mother died on April 15, 1841, age 88 years, thus her mother's birthday must have been after April 15th. Eli Wood, her father died on November 12, 1830, at age 78 years. Eli's first wife, Naomi is buried with them in the Wood Cemetary. The Wood cemetary is located on the Summer Gill farm, on a dirt road, from Pratt's Hollow to Marquisse Corners, south of Oneida, Madison County, New York. Naomi died on October 6, 1815, at age 64 years. Naomi and Eli's daughters are buried next to them:

WOOD:
Sacred to the memory of three sisters(the daughters of Eli and Naomi Woods)

  • Martia Wood died on July 14, 1834 at age 22 years.
  • Naomi Wood died on May 6, 1837, at age 21 years.
  • Emily Wood died February 5, 1837, at age 18 years. One tombstone stands alone on the road to Solsville to Madison, opposite rainbow Lake (south of Oneida, New York).

There is a House Monument 1/2 mile north of the village of Madison on Solsville Road in Madison County, New York.

  • Eliphalet House died March 12, 1804, at age 71.

  • Lucretia (nee Howell) House, wife of Eliphalet, died in August 1892, at age 67 years. I found the marriage records in Hebron, Connecticut:

    Eliphelet House and Lucretia Howell were married on January 15, 1756. in Tolland County, CT. They were recorded in the Second Congregation Church at Gilead. This church was organized in 1748.

    I am not sure how they relate to the WOODS, perhaps they both owned the same farm?

  • Nancy House, wife of Adin Howard and daughter of Eliphant and Rebecca was born on October 6, 1787, and died October 10, 1808.
  • Eliphalet House, Jr. was born on March 2, 1739, and died August 8, 1816.
  • Rebecca House, his wife was born in 1760 and died January 5, 1843 (buried in the village cemetary).
